      WAFFLES (No. 1)
Mrs. R. H. Hanson

  1 quart flour, a little salt,

  1 quart buttermilk,

  1 pint melted lard,

  1 heaping teaspoon soda,

  1 egg.

As the success of the waffles depends on the mixing, the directions must be
followed carefully.

First, put the flour and salt in a pan and beat the buttermilk into it. Add the
egg, which has been well beaten. Then add the hot lard. Beat the mixture
thoroughly, and lastly add the dry soda. Add nothing after the soda is in. Beat
all well and bake in hot waffle-irons that have been well greased.

Use half this quantity for an ordinary sized family.
